Top Picks for Dad!

We asked our buyers for their top picks for value, quality, and seasonality this week, and here is what we have to offer! (Note: All prices in effect through June 23, 2026 at all four Sonoma County Oliver’s Market locations.)

Oliver’s Wagyu Boneless Ribeye Steak, $24.99/lb.

We are excited to bring Oliver’s Market customers this excellent beef at a terrific price.  Why is Wagyu beef so special and how do you prepare it, you ask? Here is what Hayley Daniels, our Meat & Seafood Coordinator, recommends: “Oliver’s Wagyu Boneless Ribeye Steak is one of my top picks when I want to splurge on high quality meat. Authentic Japanese Wagyu cattle bloodlines, exceptional marbling, and rich buttery flavor — you can’t go wrong. My favorite way to cook this amazing steak is to first bring it to room temp before cooking and lightly salt and pepper the steak. I then use my Blackstone Grill on high heat to sear both sides, then move the steak to indirect heat, and pull off when internal temperature reaches 125 degrees. Let it rest ten minutes and serve!”

Oliver’s Own Bourbon, 750ml Bottle, $29.99+CRV

A perfect gift for a Dad who loves Oliver’s Market and bourbon! We introduced Oliver’s Own Bourbon to our customers earlier this year. This Kentucky Bourbon was distilled from a mash bill of 78% corn, 10% rye, and 12% malted barley, and aged for six years. The result is a smooth, well integrated bourbon with rich notes of caramel, along with hints of allspice and nutmeg. This release represents years of effort, and is a good reminder that sometimes patience can lead to greater rewards.

Rodney Strong Cabernet Sauvignon, 2022 Alexander Valley, 750ml Bottle, $16.99+CRV

This powerful Cabernet Sauvignon from the hillsides of Alexander Valley has aromas of lush red plum and dark berries that dominate the glass, while hints of cassis and milk chocolate play in the background. The dried fig and chewy tannins give this wine a strong backbone, while the 18 months of barrel aging have softened this bold wine just enough to enjoy now with a cheese and charcuterie board, filet mignon with grilled vegetables or a dark chocolate mousse. Drink over the next 5 to 7 years.

Dark Red Cherries, Grown by Stemilt in Washington, $2.99/lb.

These stunning beauties deliver an intense, rich and luscious sweetness for snacking.

Father figures come in all shapes and sizes, whether it be your dad, stepdad, brother, grandfather, uncle, or family friend.  Sharing a meal together, from a simple picnic or backyard barbecue to a meal made over the fire while camping can help create lasting memories with ‘dad’, no matter what you call him. It’s about the laughter, stories, and time spent together.

We invite you to make this Father’s Day special by savoring good food and each other’s company in the great outdoors, with a little help from Oliver’s Market.
